Apple is expected to unveil its first foldable iPhone, the iPhone Duo, at the company’s “Surprise and Shine” event on Wednesday, September 9. According to Mark Gurman, the device will be offered in two colors — white and a dark blue shade — and will start at $2,000 for the base 256GB model, with the highest-capacity version priced around $3,000.
iPhone Duo colors and pricing
Mark Gurman’s report echoes earlier rumors that Apple would avoid bright or “fun” colors for its initial foldable, opting instead for a darker hue described previously as closer to indigo than black. The specific color choices cited are white and dark blue. Gurman also states the entry-level iPhone Duo will begin at $2,000 for the 256GB model, while the top-tier capacity will cost roughly $3,000.
Release timing and relation to iPhone 18 Pro
The iPhone Duo is said to “go on sale as early as October,” implying it may reach retailers later than the iPhone 18 Pro models that are also expected to be announced at the September 9 event. These timing details come from the same report by Mark Gurman.
The reported color, price and timing details above are drawn from Mark Gurman’s latest account of Apple’s plans and have been presented without additional speculation.
